Here we still use putty as an example. when start putty firstly you will see this interface:

Select the Serial, Fill the Serial line with the right serial port,and the Speed with 115200

How to get the serial port .First cat /proc/tty/drivers, to make sure is there driver support(radxa board is connected with pc via USB so the device name should be usbserial)

Here we find the line

usbserial            /dev/ttyUSB   188 0-253 serial  

which tell us the driver is ok, then cd /dev/ to confirm whether is there device named ttyUSB* . you can unplug and then plug the usb to get the right device.

Finish setting, Click Open the putty will work!
